If you’ve developed an ideology that what’s good for you personally also happens to be good for everyone else, that’s quite wonderful because there’s no moral tension.
My family has very strong women. My mother never laughed at my dream of Africa, even though everyone else did because we didn’t have any money, because Africa was the ‘dark continent’, and because I was a girl.
One arm might handicap me a little in competition, but I just work with what changes I know I have to make, and I’m pretty used to it now. It mainly depends on the wave conditions… I only get half the waves everyone else rides, so mine have to be good!
These are the two sides of Steven Spielberg: the reverent grown-up who knows when to say the right thing and the exuberant kid who loves a good laugh. Both sides are sincere, and both are necessary, for Spielberg knows he can’t feel good about himself unless everyone else feels the same way.
I wanted to play this part: the goofy rock and roller who can’t hang up his guitar when it’s clear to everyone else that he should.
I do music that makes me happy by challenging myself to go the extra mile and not do what everyone else is doing.
While everyone else is thinking about economics and politics, executive salaries and the future of the euro, do the opposite, even if it’s hard. Invest in the spirit.
When you come off ‘The X Factor,’ you’re more likely to be a failure than a success because people almost want you to fail. There’s this kind of feeling that you’re separate from everyone else. You get it from artists, people in the industry, people at record labels.
The aphorism in which I am the first master among Germans, are the forms of ‘eternity’; my ambition is to say in ten sentences what everyone else says in a book – what everyone else does not say in a book.
You have to put the extra hours in if you’re not up to scratch with everyone else.
Everyone else at school was terrified of me, and they were always laughing at me.
I’m an artist but I’m also a real person. I have bills like everyone else.
If you are a certain kind of hands-on learner and have been in a writers room and know how scripts get made, and you know what pre-production is, then mostly it’s making sure the actors get what they need, and you are providing creative oversight while allowing room for everyone else to own the material, too.
I am interested in a lot of the same things people are interested in. I am trying to raise kids without them self-destructing. I am trying to hold the marriage together, and I am trying to take off the same 10 pounds everyone else is.
I want to help establish opportunities for at-risk kids to have the same opportunities in and outside of the classroom as everyone else.
The world is full of people who have dreams of playing at Carnegie Hall, of running a marathon, and of owning their own business. The difference between the people who make it across the finish line and everyone else is one simple thing: an action plan.
I always feel like an outcast… it’s just always been very different to everyone else.
My feelings are, if you’re gonna lead a rock n’ roll lifestyle, don’t let it affect your work. I know I can stay up all night and still come in the next day and write a song, and nothing will stop me from doing it. I expect the same from everyone else.
I think if I have learned one thing from all of my family members, both sides of it – my mom’s side, my dad’s side and everyone else – it’s that every one of us has a responsibility to do what we can to contribute back and make our communities and our country a better place.
Ever since I was a child, I’ve just had this sense that I’m connected to the spiritual world. I thought everyone else felt the same way. I can hear voices – not all the time – but when I’m with certain people, it sometimes comes through.
I grew up as a child who felt she was very inferior to everyone else.
That’s what happens in Hollywood. People are like, ‘I want to hate you, because everyone else seems to love you.’ But the reality is this: I’m a simple person who’s not interested in attention and who just wants to go about her business.
In this age of social media, everyone is connected to everyone else.
Working as a teaboy may have helped my confidence, but not everyone else was so pleased. I could never remember who had milk or how many sugars, and I had an unusual talent for spilling tea on the recording console.
I get breakfast when everyone else is on their lunch break. I usually go to Dimes, which is a short walk from my apartment. Usually, I’ll have chia pudding or an acai bowl and toast and sausage.
You have to stay one level above everyone else.
When I was an orphan, I was the richest kid at the orphanage because everyone else was complaining about not having anything. But when I discovered that you could get two cents for a Coca-Cola bottle, I would follow people around who were drinking it and ask them if they were almost through with it.
You cannot live to please everyone else. You have to edify, educate and fulfill your own dreams and destiny, and hope that whatever your art is that you’re putting out there, if it’s received, great, I respect you for receiving it. If it’s not received, great, I respect you for not.
At one time they’ve been the most important thing to me. So I can’t hear our records on the radio, I can’t stand it, because they sound so out of what everyone else is doing.
You might as well play at the show everyone else is playing at.
There’s a large opportunity for Bon Iver to be a special thing, even from a business standpoint – just trying to do cooler things. Every band sells t-shirts and plays certain auditoriums, but I’m sick of being like everyone else, because I’m not.
I have my days like everyone else, but mostly I’m the calm guy. I’m the laid-back one.
Everyone is living for everyone else now. They’re doing stuff so they can tell other people about it. I don’t get all that social media stuff, I’ve always got other things I want to do – odd jobs around the house. No one wants to hear about that.
I get paid very well and am happy with what I make, but I’m not in the super-rich bracket. I shop in a supermarket like everyone else.
We plutocrats need to get this trickle-down economics thing behind us: this idea that the better we do, the better everyone else will do. It’s not true. How could it be? I earn 1,000 times the median wage, but I do not buy 1,000 times as much stuff, do I?
When I grew up, you needed to have straight hair. It’s symbolic of needing to be like everyone else, needing to look like everyone else. And what that meant was looking like the dominant ruling class in America.
If you remember me, then I don’t care if everyone else forgets.
Archaeology is the peeping Tom of the sciences. It is the sandbox of men who care not where they are going; they merely want to know where everyone else has been.
Everyone eventually matches or leapfrogs everyone else.
My favorite TV show is probably ‘Glee.’ I’m a Gleek, like everyone else!
Each person is an enigma. You’re a puzzle not only to yourself but also to everyone else, and the great mystery of our time is how we penetrate this puzzle.
Everyone else is parsing it in terms of lowering the corporate income tax. Eliminate it. It’s not that big of a generator of income, and it’s a double tax. Get rid of it, and you would have an explosion of hiring.
When it comes to privacy and accountability, people always demand the former for themselves and the latter for everyone else.
The richest people in the world look for and build networks; everyone else looks for work.
Early in my career, I didn’t want to disappoint my colleagues, clients, or family. So I said yes to everything. This ended up raising my stress level and shortchanging everyone else – including myself – because I couldn’t give anyone 100 percent of my time, nor could I pay close attention.
I have very high expectations of myself. I’m a very competitive person but competitive with myself. I want to be the best that I can be and if that means that I’m eventually better than everyone else then so be it.
Yes, a business should thrive, but it shouldn’t thrive at the expense of everyone else losing.
I made an a capella cover of Kesha when everyone else was listening to Miles Davis and people didn’t like it. They imitated me.
The ADA prohibits discrimination and guarantees that people with disabilities receive the same opportunities as everyone else to participate in the mainstreams of American life, which includes participating in government programs and services.
The Beach Boys have always been a part of the ’60s spectrum, with The Beatles and that kind of thing. They were a part of the music business like everyone else. And they did quite well as a singing group, and I finished a lot of good records, and I’m very proud of them.
I schedule ‘me’ time because, just like everyone else, I need to unwind. I try to remember to take it easy and breathe.
I don’t train like a mixed martial artist. I don’t respect the sport like everyone else does.
The great thing for me is I wasn’t a great player – I managed at the lower level and managed to be successful and that gives great hope to everyone else.
For everyone else who aren’t fantasy fans or who don’t know anything about ‘The Witcher’, this is something that we can experience together because it’s drawn from the novels, but there is so much within the novels that we have developed.
